The donation includes a vast selection of diagnostic and simulation equipment including defibrillators, first aid training manikins, ECG machines, blood pressure monitors, BP arm trainers, nebulisers and patient monitors.
Supporting the Irish Red Cross
Fleming Medical acknowledges the role that Irish Red Cross plays nationally and internationally. In the event of an emergency, IRC volunteers call on their extensive training to offer life-saving care to those in need. Fleming Medical hopes that the donation of medical and diagnostic equipment will enhance the training and development of the Irish Red Cross’ large network of volunteers.
As a leading supplier of medical devices and supplies in Ireland, Fleming Medical want to ensure that the Irish Red Cross has access to essential equipment and supplies that assures their preparedness and readiness in the event of a national and global emergency.
